Great hostel, and the literally perfect location is reason enough to stay here, it is 30m away from the Duomo and walking distance to everything else Florence has to offer. The service was impeccable and check in and out couldnt have been easier. Drinks offered every evening are a lovely touch and a nice way to meet other travellers. The... More

As hostels go, this is the best of the best. It has a great location, it's spotlessly clean, the service is friendly and thoughtful and it just has lots of fab touches that make it very special. I loved the airconditioned rooms with no bunk beds (heaven!!). As a solo traveller, I really appreciated the get together at 6 every... More

Nice room, no bunk-beds! Good breakfast. Wi-fi is not so good, connection failed several times. Very good location, everything is nearby. Considering the services, it's a nice place to stay. But it isn't, definitely, a place to meet people.

Awesome location, a ten minute walk from the station, 10 seconds to the Duomo. Fantastic friendly and helpful staff. We had a quad room with an ensuite. The room was freshly painted and spotless. Heaps of space, Large lockers in the room along with a cabinet next to each bed and a towel supplied. Breakfast was simple but good. 6pm... More

This really was a great hostel experience. Admittedly it was more expensive than other hostels (I paid 25 euro a night) but it included breakfast and an evening snack. The wifi was reliable which is a huge plus for me and the rooms/bathrooms were spotless. I stayed here for 4 nights and became close with other travelers and one of... More

Great place! One of the best Hostels I've stayed at. Location is perfect. Super friendly staff, and excellent service. Great for a first time in Florence on a budget. Staff was also great with information about the city and have lots tourist info and maps of where all major sights are located. I would stay here again for sure.

What to say of what hasnt been said yet? If you are looking for a really nice and cosy place where to spend some days in one of the most beautifull city in the world, search no longer. Academy Hostel is the place for you. The staff is always willing to help you and the price is really good. Breakfast... More

Just stayed at this hostel for 3 nights. I booked a single room with shared bathroom. The hostel provides breakfast, towels, 24 hr reception and appetizers/wine every 630p, in addition to having warm and hospitable staff. It doesn't stop there. The biggest plus for this hostel was its location. The Duomo is literally a minute walk away -- an enormously... More

I stayed at Academy Hostel about a week ago for two nights and it's probably my favourite hostel I've ever stayed at, or at least tied for first place with another in Barcelona. I could go on and on forever about how great my stay was, but these are the main things that I loved : - The atmosphere was... More
